A regular visitor to the Air Tattoo is G-RAVN, a Robinson R44 light helicopter owned by Alan Smith.

Alan is Chairman of the Royal Air Force Charitable Trust Enterprises and a Trustee of the Royal Air Force Charitable Trust.
He first attended the Air Tattoo in the 1970s as marketing manager for Allied Breweries enjoying the event so much he became a volunteer.

Flying out of Wellesbourne airfield in Warwickshire, Alan's helicopter is often used as a platform to provide aerial photographs during the Air Tattoo's flying display.
